Career

López's career got underway with Temperley during the 2008–09 Primera B Metropolitana campaign, a season he scored seven goals in; the first coming against Atlanta on 10 October 2008.[1][3] In total, he scored twenty-one times in his first three seasons with Temperley.[1][4] In August 2011, Primera B Nacional team Almirante Brown loaned López.[1] Six appearances in all competitions followed.[1] He returned to Temperley for the 2012–13 and 2013–14 seasons and subsequently netted twenty-eight goals, seventeen in 2013–14 which ended with promotion to the 2014 Primera B Nacional.[1][5]

On 12 February 2015, following Temperley's promotion to the Argentine Primera División, López departed to Colombian football to play for Atlético Junior on loan.[1][6] He scored his first goal for Junior on his debut appearance versus Barranquilla in the Copa Colombia on 29 March.[1] A year later, López found himself out on loan once more - to Tristán Suárez in Primera B Metropolitana.[1][7] Twelve goals followed in his first two campaigns, prior to Tristán Suárez signing him permanently ahead of the 2017–18 Primera B Metropolitana season.[1][8] On 29 April 2019, it was announced that his contract had been terminated.[9]

López completed a move to Atlanta on 20 June 2019.[10]
